6.11.13 - New Music - Mike Posner

Mike Posner better get this out there and FAST.

Posner’s debut was way back in 2010 – remember “Cooler Than Me”? I have been a big fan of him ever since, and I’ve been rooting for a successful sophomore turn. Sadly, this album has taken a bit longer than it should have. Lead single “Looks Like Sex” was the first new single I wrote about in 2012, and it didn’t get picked up by radio.

“The Way It Used To Be” is very well done, contrasting crowd-sampling choruses with Posner’s easy-going vocal style. I like the synthpop styled production and I like that he hasn’t goin too electro. This might not be top-of-the-charts material, but it’s a nice summer track to reminisce to.
